Growing up, my family loved Disney World! We used to go to Disney for spring break every few years and I can still remember being so excited as a kid. Actually, I think my mom was even more excited and she still likes to sport her favorite Winnie the Pooh shirt I got her a few years ago at Christmas.
So when I heard genetically modified foods are now being grown at “the happiest place on earth”, I was pretty disappointed.
Parkinson’s Disease is a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system resulting from the death of dopamine-containing cells. It’s believed to be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Characteristics include tremors, muscle stiffness, poor balance and difficulty walking. Simple tasks like getting dressed in the morning can become a chore. While there is no cure, there are medications available to boost dopamine in the brain and help manage symptoms. Over time though, symptoms will stop responding to traditional drugs. It’s important to take extra measures to slow down the progression. Below are eight of the top ways to manage parkinson’s disease naturally.
Winter is soon approaching upon on us and with the colder weather comes the vaccine industry pushing their flu shots, again. By mid October we’re going to be bombarded with all the media hype telling us to get a flu shot! Ever wonder why, if the flu shot worked so well, people are revaccinated year after year? The CDC claims their vaccines work super well and that if vaccinated a person is immune from contracting the flu, and yet, in the same breath they let us know we need to be revaccinated. Huh?
According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) about 250,000 to 350,000 people in the United States have been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis or MS.
Multiple sclerosis or MS is an immune disease in which the body mistakenly attacks itself. In the case of MS, the body attacks the myelin, or fat that surrounds and protects the nerves. During an MS attack, inflammation occurs in random areas of the central nervous system in patches called plaques. The destruction of the myelin occurs next. Once these myelin sheaths are attacked and destroyed the delicate communication process between the nerves, brain, spinal cord and the rest of the body are compromised resulting in decreased or complete loss of function. The name, multiple sclerosis, is for many – multiple, and scars – sclerosis.
“There are currently around a million people in the United States with Parkinson’s disease…However, it is also estimated that 1.10% of the U. S. population, or 1 in 90 people, have the disease and do not yet know it.” (source)
What is Parkinson’s Disease?
Parkinson’s disease is a motor system disorder resulting from a lack of or loss of dopamine producing brain cells. The disease usually occurs in people over the age of fifty and onset is gradual. Symptoms may begin to develop slowly and then over time the sufferer can no longer deny the existence of the now more severe symptoms.
From time to time it seems all of us get a headache. Whether a symptom of the common cold or flu, eye strain, or another reason, we’ve all experienced the headache. However there are some people who seem to suffer more frequently from headaches than the rest of us. And then there are those who suffer from such excruciating headaches they are rendered useless until the suffering passes.
If you’re like I was, you might wonder how a chiropractor can help you overcome things like asthma, heart disease or carpel tunnel. It all links back to the “arc of life” found in your neck.
When any one of the four natural curves in the spine is misaligned, stress affects the spinal discs, tissues and nerves.
Most people associate chiropractors with pain management, but the practice of chiropractic truly operates on the premise that the work removes blockages to the body’s natural health and healing abilities. This includes removing pressure from nerves that relay signals from the brain to the organs and systems of the body.
